In 1978, the Mariners lost a record 104 games. So far this year, the Mariners have lost 102 games. ON OUR WAY TO A RECORD BREAKING SEASON!

One last statistic that I took the liberty of researching: There are 1,200 players in the Major leagues and 5,400 players in the minor leagues. Sometimes it boggles my mind on how some players make the 18% cute.

Just in case you can’t tell, I love the Mariners. And that isn’t sarcasm. Since my first game at 4 months, and the 24 seasons that followed, the Mariners will be my first love. Sorry future awesome husband, the 40-man roster comes first. I am simply heart broken by their current status. Consider this an angry girlfriends plea for change.
